Smets Wouters (2007) code in Dynare 4.1

[jjones]

I am trying to run the Smets-Wouters (2007) code in Dynare 4.1 but with no success as it appears to have been written for an earlier version.

I was able to make my way around the first error by replacing

Code: Select all

#usmodel_stst;

with

Code: Select all

@#include "usmodel_stst.m"

but now the code thinks that these parameters are in fact equations and I receive the error:

ERROR: There are 58 equations but 40 endogenous variables!

I would greatly appreciate your help in this. I have attached all the code files.

Hi jjones,

Have you gotten any reply yet? I also have the same problem. I wonder how the usmodel_stst.m file can be read in dynare version 4.

Hope someone who is successful in doing so can help out. Thanks so much.

Hi I'm trying to run the Smets Wouters (2007) code the file.mod
Typing just usmodel but even if it lasts more than 5 hours at the end it does not work. I cannot find the endogenous and exogenous variables matrices, and the steady-state results

I have Dynare 4.0

Anyone could help me??
